Their are many benefits to having a second photographer. Angie took this shot and I can honestly say there are only a few people in the state of Colorado that can create imagery like this. In my opinion she is the best female wedding photographer in the State. I am lucky to get to photograph weddings with her.
As photographers we are always looking for those little moments, the funny, sad, any real moments. I am lucky to get to shoot weddings with someone else. We know what each other is doing and usually help each other out without having to say anything. Angie was shooting formals of the bridal party and I was able to catch this shot. I love the bridesmaids face when the bride and groom started kissing.
If you are a bride and you can get two photographers instead of one I highly recommend it. If you don’t think it will make a difference look at a full wedding from a two shooter team and compare it against a wedding shot by one photographer. You will be able to see a difference. My small print. I am sure some great single shooter is out there going but I am better than 2 bad wedding shooters. He is correct. One really great shooter > than two bad shooters. Make the comparison with photographers of equal talent
I have come to the conclusion that I will never catch this blog up even though I blog a few times a week. The massive amount of images that we shoot each year yield so much work I want to share, but can’t possibly get to without hiring someone to write the blog for us. That just wouldn’t be any fun. You would never get a sense of what Angie and I are about. Never learn those things that you don’t really want to know. Picking images when we first started out was not hard. We of course just picked the one that was in focus and properly exposed (lol). Now its a lot more daunting. It is part of the reason it has been so easy to share single images. Many of these images stand out, I can tell you about them without looking through our portfolio.
Here is one such film image taken at a wedding this year in the Ouray area. It was perfectly timed for the changing of the leaves and the weather was beautiful. I love the brides smile and if I was being a sappy photographer the story the image tells. I see this image as a metaphor for marriage. Smiling having a good time through life, helping each other up and around obstacles. The image say’s follow me. Sometimes leading, sometimes following.
I have had a few people ask whats up the water. This is down from Red Mountain. The water has a lot of mineral deposits in some spots its almost copper.
Destination weddings are so beautiful. I love giving couples a chance to get away and have a few moments after the wedding. The couple forgets the photographer is there you get beautiful candid moments. Add some beautiful light and you have the makings of some great imagery. I have gotten a few emails from those of you wanting to see more, its not done yet but very soon.
